   scheme and bootstrapping papers marks exceptionally rare academic feat_
 ◦ _Hundreds-fold speedup in matrix operations accelerates path to commercial Private
   AI_

SEOUL, South Korea, May 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — DESILO, a specialist in Fully Homomorphic
Encryption (FHE) and Privacy-Enhancing Technology (PET), announced today that two
papers on its 5th-generation homomorphic encryption scheme ‘GL,’ led by DESILO researchers,
have been simultaneously accepted at Crypto 2026, the world’s most prestigious cryptography
conference.

Crypto is one of the three IACR flagship conferences (Crypto, Eurocrypt, Asiacrypt)
and has been held since 1981. This year’s edition will take place in Santa Barbara,
USA, beginning August 17.

The two accepted papers are: the core scheme paper ("Fully Homomorphic Encryption
for Matrix Arithmetic"), and a paper on ‘GL Bootstrapping,’ the procedure that enables
unlimited computation in homomorphic encryption.

Having two papers from the same research line — the core scheme and its follow-up
depth paper (bootstrapping) — accepted in the same Crypto proceedings is considered
highly exceptional by the academic community. This signifies that the GL scheme 
has been recognized not merely as a theoretical proposal, but as a complete, independently
validated 5th-generation FHE system.

The research was co-authored by DESILO researchers (Yongwoo Lee, Eunmo Yang, Youngmin
Lee, and Hyojun Kim), along with Craig Gentry (currently Chief Scientist at Cornami),
who first constructed a fully homomorphic encryption scheme in 2009 and subsequently
received the Gödel Prize — the equivalent of the Nobel Prize in theoretical computer
science. The bootstrapping paper also includes contributions from Cornami’s Eric
Crockett.

Homomorphic encryption is a next-generation technology that enables computation 
directly on encrypted data, maximizing security. As ‘Private AI’ — using AI safely
without risk of exposing raw data — has emerged as a key industry theme, the importance
of FHE has grown substantially. However, the slow processing speed due to intensive
computation has remained a central challenge for commercialization.

The GL scheme offers a meaningful breakthrough to overcome this limitation. By designing
a structure optimized for matrix operations — the backbone of AI/ML — the scheme
achieves performance improvements of hundreds of times over 4th-generation technology
in core computation areas. This is seen as a significant step toward practical commercialization
of Private AI services that require large-scale data processing.

DESILO is also accelerating practical application work on the basis of these academic
results. In April, the company integrated the GL scheme into its commercial FHE 
library DESILO FHE, leading the way in technical validation and productization for
Private AI implementation.

Yongwoo Lee, Chief Scientist at DESILO, stated: _"The simultaneous acceptance of
both the core scheme and the bootstrapping papers means GL has been recognized on
the world stage not as a single-paper idea, but as a complete 5th-generation FHE
system. DESILO will not leave the GL scheme in the lab — we are steadily implementing
it in our actual library and product stack, and we will lead the security paradigm
of the coming Private AI era on the foundation of these academic achievements."_
